	W. T. Tutte - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		William Thomas Tutte (May 14, 1917–May 2, 2002) was a British, later Canadian, codebreaker and mathematician.
		Tutte was born in Newmarket in Suffolk, the son of a gardener.
		Tutte worked at Bletchley Park as a codebreaker, and in a feat described as "one of the greatest intellectual feats of World War II" he was able to deduce the structure of the German Lorenz SZ 40/42 encryption machine (codenamed Tunny), used for high-level German Army communications, using only a number of intercepted encrypted messages.

	Dan Younger's remarks
		Bill Tutte was born May 14, 1917 at Fitzroy House in Newmarket, England.
		Tutte's great contribution was to uncover, from samples of the messages alone, the structure of the machines which generated these codes.
		Tutte was an important ingredient in the recipe that produced the Faculty of Mathematics in 1967, becoming one of the first members of the Department of Combinatorics and Optimization.

		Professor Bill Tutte, who has died aged 84, was responsible for one of Bletchley Park's greatest code-breaking achievements during World War II when he cracked the teleprinter cipher, known as Tunny, which Hitler used to communicate with his generals.
		Tutte was a young chemistry graduate working in Bletchley Park's research section when he was asked to examine an enciphered message, known as Tunny, and its plain-text equivalent.
		Tutte painstakingly wrote out vast sequences of the individual bits that made up the enciphered and plain-text equivalent of the message by hand, looking for some form of pattern.

		Bill, as he was known to his friends and colleagues, was born in Newmarket, Suffolk, England, at a time when his parents were working in Fitzroy House, the Newmarket horse racing stable.
		Bill and his parents returned to live in the village of Cheveley about three miles to the east of the town where their cottage was beside the Cheveley village church.
		Bill and Dorothea moved to a home in West Montrose, along the Grand River, where Tutte continued to live after his retirement in 1984 until the death of his wife 1994.

	Bill and Dorothea in Dagmar
		Bill Tutte, no doubt continuing his interest and his enjoyment of hiking in the countryside which began in his native England, became a member of the Canadian Youth Hostels Association on his arrival in Canada in the late 1940s.
		Bill and Dorothea for a time rented the upper floor for their residence, and they were generous in the loan of their space for social activities.
		The Tuttes lived in their cabin for as much of the year as they could, Bill commuting to his post at the University of Toronto, only resorting to their Leaside residence when the winter weather was too extreme for their little-insulated cabin.

		Professor William 'Bill' Tutte, who has died in Canada aged 84, made an unsurpassed contribution to the success of the British wartime assault on enemy codes and ciphers at Bletchley Park.
		Working from scratch, Tutte performed, with colleagues, a similar feat against Lorenz by deducing from signal traffic how it worked and how it was built - without ever having seen the machine itself, still less got his hands on a plan or drawing of it.
		Tutte worked out that the machine enciphered its texts through a dozen wheels, but, as the war contin ued, the Germans applied more and more sophistication to the process.

	Math pioneer Bill Tutte given institute honour
		Tutte is credited with performing groundbreaking work in several new areas that were later to grow into major fields of discrete math.
		Tutte served as editor-in-chief of the Journal of Combinatorial Theory in its early years, and as a member of editorial boards of a number of other research journals.
		Tutte, who was honoured with a symposium at UW on his 80th birthday in 1997, will present a lecture at the CRM and at the Fields Institute this year.

		William Thomas Tutte was the son of the gardener and cook at Fitzroy House, the Newmarket racing stable.
		Part of the attraction of Waterloo was the prospect of returning to the kind of village atmosphere in which he had grown up.
		The possessor of an encyclopedic knowledge of British history, Tutte differed from many mathematicians in having a strong interest in literature, in particular detective stories and Sir Walter Scott.

	Virtual Bletchley Park
		Bill Tutte, being a mathematician, had called the three sets of wheels, Chi, for the regular set, Psi for the intermittently moving set and Mu for what became known as the Motor wheels, the ones controlling the motion of the Psi wheels.
		What Bill Tutte found was that it was possible to break into the Chis by attacking the wheels in pairs.
		Bill Tutte also found that the non-random effect can be amplified if the Delta is used rather than the direct character bit patterns.

		Bill Tutte´s attitudes to research, teaching and collegiality were formed at the University of Cambridge, England when this was well understood.
		Bill Tutte had his heroes: Hassler Whitney, formerly of the Institute for Advanced Studies, was perhaps the one he revered the most but G.H. Hardy was another.
		Bill smiles sadly and said, I think, "Yes, life goes on." Frances in our department will be giving birth and I know that if he could, Bill would say that again.

		Bill started to write this out at various periodicity's, remember this was BC, Before Computers, so he had to write it out by hand but when he wrote it out on a repetition rate of 41, various patterns began to emerge so 41 had some significance in the structure of the machine.
		Bill Tutte being a mathematician called these the Chi, Psi and Mu wheels, lesser mortals call them the K, S and M wheels.
		But Bill Tutte also found that although individual streams were 0.5 dead, streams taken in pairs were 0.47 but this meant going through all possible start positions of both tracks together, 1,271 for k1 and k2.

		Date: 6 Oct 1997 06:15:37 GMT While I was in London a few months ago, I had the pleasure and privilege of attending a talk by Bill Tutte, one of the grand old men of graph theory.
		Amusingly, Tutte was wearing a tie with a map of the fragment on it, which he used to refer to, part-way through the talk, when drawing it up on the board, (as if he didn't know it by heart!) Unfortunately, several of us were disappointed to learn that they were not commercially available!
		Secondly: I have a dim memory of having seen a paper in which Tutte's fragment was used for something else, but I have no idea what it was now.

		William T. Tutte, one of UW's early and internationally famous faculty members, died Thursday at the age of 84.
		A pioneer in graph theory and mathematical cryptography, Tutte came to UW in 1962 to join the "department of mathematics", was later given the title of "distinguished professor" in combinatorics and optimization, and since his retirement had been continuing his research and serving as honorary director of the Centre for Applied Cryptography Research.
		Tutte was named to the Order of Canada last year, with a citation noting not just his work as a teacher and theoretical mathematician, but his contributions to breaking German codes for the British armed forces during World War II.

		For the first three, degrees were handed out for arts, science and mathematics, but on that day, 64 engineers received their degrees.
		It was also the year UW president Doug Wright introduced the 25-year club, honoured Bill Davis by granting the premier a degree and gave medals to 16 “builders” from the university’s inception.

		This egregious error was the chance for which BP was waiting and a team headed by Colonel John Tiltman deciphered the message in short order.
		Tiltman passed the material along to a young Cambridge mathematician, Bill Tutte, who immediately set to work in a attempt to determine the principle by which the Lorenz machine worked.
		Incredibly, only four months later Tutte and BP had a working knowledge of the internals of the machine and were able to build an electro-mechanical analogue - the Tunny machine.
